Genetic aspects of lactase deficiency in indigenous populations of Siberia by B. A. Malyarchuk

“…In European populations, lactase persistence is determined mainly by the presence of the rs4988235-T variant in the MCM6 gene, which increases the expression of the LCT gene, encoding lactase. The highest rates of lactase persistence are characteristic of Europeans, and the lowest rates are found in East Asian populations. …”

ROS-Induced Oxidative Damage and Mitochondrial Dysfunction Mediated by Inhibition of SIRT3 in Cultured Cochlear Cells by Lingjun Zhang, Zhengde Du, Lu He, Wenqi Liang, Ke Liu, Shusheng Gong

“…In contrast with the control group, the accumulation of ROS was significantly higher, and the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was lower in the H2O2-treated groups. Furthermore, the expression of SIRT3, FOXO3A, and SOD2 proteins declined, except for an initial elevation of SIRT3 between 0 and 0.75 mM H2O2. …”

Succinate Supplement Elicited “Pseudohypoxia” Condition to Promote Proliferation, Migration, and Osteogenesis of Periodontal Ligament Cells by Huimin Mao, Andi Yang, Yunhe Zhao, Lang Lei, Houxuan Li

“…The succinate supplement enhanced hPDLC proliferation, migration, and osteogenesis with decreased succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) expression and activity, as well as increased hexokinase 2 (HK2) and 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-biphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3), suggesting metabolic reprogramming from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis in a normal oxygen condition. …”

Kaempferol enhances ER-mitochondria coupling and protects motor neurons from mitochondrial dysfunction and ER stress in C9ORF72-ALS by Federica Pilotto, Paulien Hermine Smeele, Olivier Scheidegger, Rim Diab, Martina Schobesberger, Julieth Andrea Sierra-Delgado, Smita Saxena

“…Lastly, in silico modelling identified a novel kaempferol target and mechanistically the neuroprotective mechanism of kaempferol is through the iP3R-VDAC1 pathway via the modulation of GRP75 expression. Thus, kaempferol holds great promise for treating neurodegenerative diseases where both mitochondrial and ER dysfunction are causally linked to the pathophysiology. …”
